Sloane says Valta, a computer that will revolutionize info gathering from satellite networks, was stolen from the NSA headquarters 10 days prior by Martin Bishop, who will be deliver it to a German terrorist group. Bishop, a British ex-pat living in Spain, awaits final payment before delivering Valta. The team must recover or destroy the computer.

They determine that Valta's whereabouts are stored on a powerful server on Bishop's estate in Andalusia, Spain, and they can only hack into it from the inside. Once in Spain, the team sets a trap for Bishop using Syd as bait - she portrays a mysterious woman caught in an overturned car. Bishop rescues her and invites him to her home. He tells her not to wander the grounds.

Jack administers a psych test to Nadia. He tells Sloane that he's learned enough to deal with the problem.

With Vaughn monitoring the situation, Syd sneaks away and finds the server in the basement. She determines that Valta is located at Malaga's Alameda Yards in container C0717. Bishop's suspicion is raised when he runs into Syd as she returns to her room. Sloane sends a team to Malaga to find Valta and tells Jack that Syd may be in trouble.

At Alameda Yards, a CIA team destroys Valta, but Weiss is captured. Bishop is informed of the raid and learns that someone accessed his server. An alarmed Syd signals for help, and Vaughn and Dixon go in only to find the house empty. Marshall tracks Bishop by his cell phone signal.

Jack tells Nadia he doesn't blame her for Irina's infidelity and hands her classified documents before they are dispatched to Spain, where they liaison with Vaughn. Bishop holds both Weiss and Syd captive. Bishop hopes to off them up to the terrorist group as a replacement for the computer. Syd breaks free of the ropes and beats the guard -- Weiss now realizes she's black ops. They go after bishop. Vaughn meets up with Weiss. Syd trails Bishop, jumps on top of his car and shoots him through the roof. He slams the breaks and she tumbles off. He's about to shoot her when he is killed by Nadia, who a pumps a few extra rounds into him. She says he was the one who killed Irina, their mother - Jack lied to her!

Later, Jack admits to Syd that he adjusted details in the documents to manipulate Nadia and give her closure. He says a satisfying lie can do more good than the awful truth.
